Thoughts on Blogging

As well as delivering a course using e-learning technology this semester…I have attempted…through regular postings on this blog… to record the triumphs and failures of our e-learning pilot project.

Blogging is a completely new experience for this old dog…and I was pleasantly surprised to learn how easy it is to start blogging…check out this excellent web site if you would like to learn more about blogging https://www.blogger.com/start

I have also posted a great You Tube video on the sidebar that explains how you can create your own blog…why not give it a try?

Having blogged away for the past six months I offer these thoughts…blogging is a lonely pastime…blogging is a self-indulgent activity…blogging requires discipline and commitment…blogging consumes time quicker than a Hummer consumes gas...blogging is great fun.

Yes indeed....in the final analysis, blogging offers its own reward…it allows anyone…even a college teacher in northern Ontario to be published…worldwide.

Most importantly, blogging allows for the sharing of information…and hopefully; in some small way, this blog has inspired or challenged a reader or two to consider the merits of e-learning.
